What is the advantage of a solid steel griddle cooktop vs grill grates?
What is the advantage of a solid steel griddle cooktop vs grill grates?
A flat, solid steel griddle opens up what you can actually cook — scrambled eggs, bacon, pancakes, smash burgers, shrimp, delicate fish, vegetables, even a sauce or side in a pan — foods that would fall through open grates or stick and tear on a grill. On the solid steel cooktop, the steel sits between the fire and the food, so grease can't drip into the flames. That makes flare-ups impossible on the cooktop, so your food doesn't get scorched by them. The flat surface also lets flavors mingle right on the cooktop, the way a good diner griddle works, and cleanup is a single flat surface to scrape rather than picking food out of grates. You're not giving up the classic sear, though — the center grill grate is always there in the middle of the cooktop, ready whenever you want true open-flame char and grill marks on a steak or burger. You get the full versatility of a griddle and the sear of a grill, on one cooktop.
Why buy a wood grill when I can get the convenience of gas?
Why buy a wood grill when I can get the convenience of gas?
Arteflame runs on hardwood or lump charcoal, which is what makes the 1,000°F+ sear and real wood-fired flavor possible — something a home gas grill can't match. It's still just as easy to live with: the cooktop heats through in 30–45 minutes, one fire with built-in hot and cool zones instead of a row of burner dials, and a cooktop that essentially cleans itself as the fire burns off drippings. If you'd still like the flip-a-switch option, a gas conversion is available — but most owners stick with wood or charcoal for the sear and flavor it delivers.
What is the cleaning and maintenance like?
What is the cleaning and maintenance like?
Minimal. Scrape the cooktop clean with a griddle scraper while it's still warm — the fire burns off most of what's left — then wipe on a light coat of oil to protect the seasoning, the same way you'd care for a cast-iron skillet. There's no porcelain coating to chip and no grates to scrub. Empty the cooled ash after each use, and keep the CORTEN steel body's drain holes clear; it's built to weather outdoors and develop its own natural patina over time.
How long does it take to heat up?
How long does it take to heat up?
Allow 30–45 minutes for the ½″ hot-rolled steel cooktop to heat through, and a little longer in cold weather. That build-up time lets the cooktop work as a heat reservoir: once it is hot, the center grill grate runs over 1,000°F, the cooktop about 450–550°F near the inner edge and 250–350°F toward the outer edge.
How do I clean the grill?
How do I clean the grill?
- While the cooktop is still hot, push food debris and excess oil into the center fire with a straight-edge griddle scraper.
- Wipe the surface with a light coat of oil while it's still warm — this feeds the seasoning and guards against oxidation as it cools.
- Once the grill has cooled completely, scoop out the ash with a plastic cup or ash tool.
- If any oxidation spots appear, buff them out with a Brillo pad, steel wool, or fine sandpaper — this is rare with regular use.
Treat the cooktop like cast iron: no harsh chemical cleaners and no heavy scrubbing required.
Why would I want CORTEN steel over regular steel?
Why would I want CORTEN steel over regular steel?
Thickness and alloy. Many fire pits and grills are made from 14-gauge mild steel, about 1.9 mm (0.075") thick and protected only by paint. Arteflame fire bowls and grill bodies are 10-gauge CORTEN, about 3.4 mm (0.135") thick: nearly twice as much steel. CORTEN, also called "weathering" steel, also corrodes more slowly outdoors than ordinary steel, because its alloy forms a tight, protective patina. In long-term measurements in polluted industrial air, weathering steel lost about 2 µm a year against about 50 µm for conventional structural steel (SteelConstruction.info).
If the surface gets scratched, the exposed steel forms the same patina again. There is no paint or powder coat to blister near the fire, and the warm, changing color is part of the design. The cooktop is a separate ½" plate of hot-rolled steel, not CORTEN, designed to last a lifetime.

Also Ready for Gas
Also Ready for Gas
Every Arteflame is built with gas conversion in mind. In the bottom of the firebowl there are 10 holes. The center hole is sized to take a 1-inch gas pipe, so your grill can be converted to gas by a professional installer whenever you're ready.
Common Questions
Common Questions
Is it a grill or a griddle?
Both. A wood or charcoal fire burns in the center under a grill grate for searing, and the flat steel cooktop around it works as a griddle. You cook on both at the same time over one fire.
How hot does it get?
The center grill grate passes 1,000°F. The cooktop runs about 450–550°F near the inner edge and 250–350°F toward the outer edge (measured on an Arteflame Classic 40). Allow 30–45 minutes for the steel to heat through. How the heat zones work
Will grease flare up?
Not on the cooktop. The solid steel sits between the fire and the food, so grease cannot drip into the flames and scorch the food.
What is the cooktop made of?
A ½" plate of solid hot-rolled steel, not CORTEN, designed to last a lifetime. It seasons like a cast-iron pan: scrape it while warm and wipe on a light coat of oil after each cook.
What is the Euro base?
A base of slide-together CORTEN steel legs with an open, architectural look. It sets the grill at 40", bar height, the same as the round and storage bases.
What do the 2 and 5 accessory bundles include?
2 Accessories: the center grill grate and a seasoning puck. 5 Accessories: those two plus a side warming table, a wood cutting and serving board, and an Italian leather apron.
Will the CORTEN steel stain my patio?
CORTEN forms its protective patina outdoors, and during the first rains some rust-colored runoff can drip from it. Set it on pavers, gravel or a fireproof mat rather than light concrete until the patina has settled. CORTEN steel and how to prevent patio staining
Can it run on gas?
Yes, by conversion. The fire bowl has a center hole sized for a 1" gas pipe, so a professional installer can convert it to gas whenever you are ready.

It looks like a Claus Oldenburg sculpture. It functions like a wood burning grill & plancha. It's great for steak, fragile fish, veggies and everything in between.
I love this grill - it's made of half-inch carbon steel and corten "weathering" steel with a cooktop that heats from the center out.
Steakhouse-Quality Searing at Home
Sear at over 1,000°F on the center grill grate. The Arteflame 40" builds a crisp, steakhouse-style crust on the outside of a steak while the inside stays juicy. Many steakhouses advertise their wood-fired grills and hard sears for a reason: that combination turns a good steak into a great one. An Arteflame brings that same steakhouse-level searing power home, which is exactly why people buy one.
Grill and Griddle in One
Introducing the Arteflame Classic 40" Flat Top Grill with High Euro Base – your gateway to wood-fired grilling adventures. Because the cooktop is one continuous ½" solid steel surface with heat radiating outward from a single center fire, you get several temperature zones on one grill at the same time: a 1,000°F+ sear zone on the center grate, 450–550°F on the cooktop toward the inner edge, and 250–350°F toward the outer edge. Every 40″ Arteflame uses the same cooktop, and we have measured these zones many times on our own Classic 40 (how the heat zones work). That means steaks, chicken, vegetables, and shrimp can all be cooking exactly the way they need to, all at once, on the same fire.
It also means you never have to run back inside to the stove. Set a sauté pan of onions or a pot of pasta water right on the cooktop next to your protein, and your entire meal — starter to dessert — comes together outdoors, on one grill.
And because it's a solid steel surface instead of open grates, you can cook things a regular grill simply can't handle: scrambled eggs, pancakes, bacon, hash browns, delicate fish, even a shrimp scampi — nothing falls through, and nothing flares up. This complete starter bundle brings it all home in one package, with essential accessories included so you're ready to grill the moment it arrives.
Craftsmanship and Durability
The Arteflame's flat cooktop is crafted from ½" hot-rolled steel, designed to last a lifetime and chosen for how evenly it holds and radiates heat outward from the center fire. The rest of the grill — body, base, and legs — is built entirely from US CORTEN "weathering" steel: strong enough for daily use, and designed to develop a rich, natural patina outdoors rather than rust or fade. Its high Euro base, sculpted in elegant design lines, combines luxury with resilience, making it a timeless addition to any outdoor space. This is a grill built to be handed down, not replaced.
Arteflame's precision airflow system
Every Arteflame is engineered around a precision airflow system that channels oxygen straight to the base of the fire, keeping combustion clean and efficient from first light to last ember. That steady, controlled airflow is what makes it possible to hold a 1,000°F+ sear at the center of the cooktop while the outer ring stays gentle enough to keep food warm — all from a single fire, with no fans, batteries, or electronics required. High-heat searing, easy grilling and heat zones you control.
A Complete Culinary Experience
With the Arteflame's range of heat zones you can grill an entire feast at once, and every dish picks up real wood-fired flavor, not just heat. It's the same reason many pizzerias fire their ovens with wood instead of gas: smoke and char add a depth of flavor gas doesn't. On an Arteflame, that same wood flavor works like a seasoning on everything you cook, not just pizza — steaks pick up a rich, smoky char, and vegetables take on a subtle sweetness you simply can't get any other way. Different woods bring different character too, from bold hickory and mesquite to milder fruit woods like apple and cherry, so half the fun is experimenting. What's your favorite wood combination?
Transformative Flat Top Grilling and Socializing
Arteflame turns grilling into the center of the party, not a chore done off to the side. Gather everyone around the cooktop — there's room for the cook to sear steaks while guests grill their own shrimp skewers or vegetables right alongside, no waiting for grill space. And when the cooking's done, the fire keeps going: push the coals to the center and the Arteflame becomes a fire bowl, the natural place for the evening to wind down. Few things bring people outside and keep them there longer than an open fire and the smell of something good cooking on it.
